What are AI Policies?
At Kodif, we’re excited to announce the launch of Policies—a powerful, dynamic solution designed to revolutionize the way CX managers handle customer support. Unlike traditional flows, which are rigid and complex, Policies empower non-technical users to create and manage customer interactions with ease. Written in natural language, Policies make it simple to define and refine customer experiences without needing to rely on complicated flowcharts or scripting. This approach is not only user-friendly but also self-serve, enabling CX teams to quickly translate existing Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) into automation, saving valuable time and resources.
The flexibility of Kodif Policies ensures that businesses can offer personalized, context-driven support while continuously improving customer experiences. With Policies, you can experiment with different strategies to optimize outcomes such as CSAT, revenue, and retention—all without the need to rebuild complex workflows. Whether it’s automating routine interactions or testing new approaches for high-stakes scenarios, Policies provide a scalable, adaptable solution that aligns with your business goals. While flows still have their place in sensitive, high-risk situations, Policies offer an agile alternative that helps businesses innovate faster and deliver exceptional, tailored experiences at scale.
“Cancel order” ticket type explained
In customer support, a “Cancel order” ticket refers to requests from customers to cancel their orders post-purchase. Handling these tickets efficiently is crucial as it often involves understanding the reasons for cancellation, offering alternatives to retain the sale, and ensuring customer satisfaction throughout the process. A well-managed cancellation request can prevent potential churn and even convert a dissatisfied customer into a loyal one by offering well-crafted retention strategies.
